"With the parties at virtual parity and the ideological gulf between them never greater, the stakes of majority control of Congress are extremely high"
- Thomas E. Mann
About this Quote
This quote by Thomas E. Mann speaks to the present political environment in the United States. With the 2 significant political parties, the Democrats and the Republicans, at virtual parity in regards to their representation in Congress, the ideological gulf between them has actually never been higher. This suggests that the distinctions between the two celebrations in regards to their policies and beliefs are more noticable than ever in the past. As an outcome, the stakes of bulk control of Congress are exceptionally high. Whoever holds the bulk in Congress will have the power to pass legislation that reflects their celebration's beliefs and values. This makes the outcome of the upcoming elections a lot more essential, as the bulk party will have the power to shape the future of the country.
